Abstract:
Purpose: To investigate the effectiveness of the hospital-community-family nursing model in breast cancer patients discharged with PICC lines. To investigate the effectiveness of the hospital-community-family nursing model in breast cancer patients discharged with PICC lines.
Design: A randomized controlled study.
Method: A total of 160 breast cancer patients who had been discharged from the hospital with PICC lines were enrolled in the study and divided into observation and control groups, each consisting of 80 patients. The control group received conventional nursing care and education, while the observation group received care under the “hospital-community-family” tertiary linkage nursing model.
Findings: The results of this study suggest that the adoption of the hospital-community-family tertiary linkage nursing model can improve compliance and quality of life in breast cancer patients with PICC lines. Additionally, the model can also reduce the likelihood of complications for patients.
Conclusion: This study highlights the importance of promoting the application of the hospital-community-family triple linkage nursing model in breast cancer patients with PICC lines to improve the therapeutic effect.
Clinical evidence: The hospital-community-family triple linkage nursing model is an effective strategy to improve the effectiveness of home nursing.
